I arrived in the real estate business over a decade ago and have since helped scores of people buy and sell their homes.

The groundswell that I created in my practice is rooted in the relationships that I have nurtured over the years. My style is educational, and I see myself as the coach and leader of your real estate transaction. My coaching is geared towards empowering you to make informed decisions that will lead to your best possible outcome. I excel at asking the questions that get to the heart of the matter which in turn enables a smooth sale process.

Away from the office I am passionate about so many things, but it all begins and ends with my family. My boys are both in elementary school and parenting is an ongoing challenge and joy for my wife and I. We love to travel around Oregon, the East Coast, Mexico and beyond. My passion for surfing, kiteboarding, and fishing help to keep me grounded in life.

Drew's Testimonials

Although we felt as though we had numerous viable candidates regarding competent REALTORS® on our initial list, Drew was undoubtedly our number one choice from the start of this process for a variety of reasons. Firstly, Drew's experience in this profession seems virtually unparalleled and this idea provided us with a great deal of comfort in this daunting process and this shone through throughout the transaction. Secondly, Drew is a very personable and genuine sort of a guy. These attributes were also obvious throughout, and we felt as though this was not "just another sale" for him but rather that he was genuinely concerned with us, our home, our wants and needs, our family's needs as a whole, and the needs of the buyers. When issues arose during the process and/or decisions of any kind had to be made, Drew was always clear and concise in spelling out the pros and cons to each approach in a diplomatic and unbiased manner, and then ultimately supported any decision we made. However, I would often respond to him by asking him "well, what would you do?", mostly because I very much respect his level of experience and his decision-making abilities and he always had the logical solution/answer.

Matt C.

We hired Drew to sell our home. We had interviewed and met with several great agents in the area and around town and landed on Drew. If you are in the market for an agent who will listen, give solid advice, put together the best plan to help you sell your home in a timely and efficient manner there may not be a better agent than Drew. He made the entire process smooth and easy, alleviating stress and ensuring a successful and happy transaction. What more could you ask for as a seller? He's a great agent and you'd be doing yourself a huge favor by hiring him.

Anne & Gurpreet T.

After months of trying to do the home-buying thing on our own, we finally wised up and found a ‘real’ agent. Thankfully, we were referred by a friend to Drew. Drew's services were everything we were looking for in an agent: knowledgeable, responsive and timely (which is SO important in Portland's current market), without being pushy, and definitely none of that yucky sales-guy-vibe. We really saw the value of choosing Drew after we put an offer on our home. He made the entire process as simple and painless as it could possibly be. We loved working with Drew and he will certainly have our business in the future!

Verelle & Cory T.

We engaged Drew to help us find and purchase an upgrade on our old home, and also to sell the old home. He was amazing on both ends of the transaction. He was a very cool customer and new exactly how to approach the new home purchase, saving us a tidy sum by calming us down when we thought about  bidding up.

Steve & Marie B.

Drew is the best real estate agent we’ve worked with between the 5 buys/sales we’ve conducted. Drew is smart, organized, responsive, strategic, level-headed, fair and seasoned. Unlike many other agents, he's an extraordinary listener and approaches the entire process with care and integrity.  Drew was 100% engaged throughout the entirety of the process and always made sure our desires and needs were met. Drew is the agent every seller/buyer wants and needs.

Dustin & Colt T-J.
